We went to 22 different countries in 61 days on our honeymoon

Embarking on an Epic 22-Country Journey: A Two-Month Honeymoon Adventure

Travel enthusiasts often dream of traversing multiple nations in a single trip, immersing themselves in diverse cultures, cuisines, and landscapes. Recently, my wife and I had the extraordinary opportunity to do just that during our two-month honeymoon, exploring 22 countries across Europe and North Africa. Reflecting on this adventure, I can confidently say it was an enriching experience that surpassed our expectations—and I would gladly do it all over again.

Our journey was carefully curated to include a mix of iconic cities, charming towns, and breathtaking natural sights. Here’s a detailed overview of our itinerary, which we hope inspires fellow wanderers to consider their own globetrotting dreams.
